Yeah, either way I was quite pleased with it. What are the parts of the car that are at risk of getting damaged after repeated runs to 60? Apart from the tyres? Sam

945kg is the quoted standard. Sam

Depends on wheel offset and whether your arch liners are out. But I was told around 40mm safely but you may be fine with 60mm Sam

Simon, No, I think I may have started on a slight gradient. I think this may have made the gtech think I was accelerating quicker than I actually was. I know the results are varied, although with a few I missed gear changes and I changed at different points to experiment. 75 BHP and I...

lol, well we have had many discussions about this gear changing... I think we have concluded about 6100rpm in first and 5950 in 2nd. I rev to about 4500 before I drop the clutch to start the run. Having said that the 8.79 run was with dropping the clutch at 5100 rpm but the surface was...

How good would the results be taylor do you think? Is there a chance they could get worse? lol Sam

Have done a few more today: -10.25 -8.79!!! -11.25 -10.06 -9.88 -10.02 Couldn't believe the 8.79 one! Sam

Clidge, do you have a 1*2 yeah? How high up do you have the gtech mounted on the screen? Cheers Sam

There was a test done by fifth gear I think it was. That showed on small engines there is no difference between the different RONS in terms of BHP gains but the more HP the car has the greater the difference it makes. I think the golf gti gained something like 6bhp and the subaru even more...

I see where you were coming from cliokhunt, but as someone said, the times posted weren't including the braking times. I see how the title may have misled. As for the braking side of things, how does that distance sound? I know there is perhaps more variables with the braking distance but it...

I will be selling the car in 5 months time so aslong as it won't bugger shocks that quick I am not too bothered. Comfort is not important to me. I would like to lower the car a bit as it is very high, especially now I have taken out the wheel, tools and back seats but I am not prepared to do...

Which of the above produce better handling/cornering on a 1.2 dynamique? Sam

Ok I will get a mate to time it as well over 10 more runs. I must stress the road is very very flat and straight. Cliokhunt please rephrase. I am struggling to understand where this good brakes thing came from? Sam

Hello guys, After receiving my Gtech Performance Pro Meter this morning from Browno (excellent seller btw) I though it would be shame not to test those 75 horses under the bonnet. So I went and found myself a recently retarmaced (sp) road, about a kilometre long and completely straight. I...

Love it...but the blue looked a little slicker IMO

I am going to order one! Only 15 pounds Sam

lol no I was joking about it being me :). Although I am confident I would still ensure my dynamique speeds off with your calvins! Sam

Yeah, I think when you are younger self preservation perhaps is not as developed as in a 30+ yr old.

lol no I was only joking...

Seriously on 95% of A road bends I do not brake, maybe ease of slightly but not very much. My dynamique seems to go around corners quicker than all of my mates cars its just in a straight line its not to speedy!! Sam

You weren't the 182 driver that disappeared in my rear view mirror today were you, in hants? Sam

bump

link is dodgy

They would be toyo tyres and I could get them fitted for 200? Sam

Yes what sorry :s? Sam

Anyone?

Would I get more if i fitted them with brand new toyo tyres or should I leave them as they are atm (two are now slicks lol and two have 3mm). If the tyres cost me 200 fitted and the wheel are in good to excellent condition bar one which you would probably want to refurb. How much should I be...

How much will it cost? And where shouldI source it? Thanks for you help Sam

Anyone? Sam

90 quid seems alot. I understood it to be 40 tops Sam
